steve came steve came!

last week, cameron's bff, steve, came to visit from ft. worth.

-erin and katie had the great idea to have a little party for him.

so we emailed some people and had a little cookout last friday.

when i was taking this pic i couldnt really see, and shellie knew i was taking it, and she made this crazy face... zoom in on the pic to see :)

steve and his brat

we were really checking to see if there was anything in each others teeth,

but hmmmm it doesn't really look that way....

bethany, shellie, liz

then sunday i was supposed to work; but was on call.

before church cam and steve were playing with cam's last years christmas present from alec...

the helicopter

they were trying to get it to land on someone's head...

(cam is wearing protective eye gear)

that's the best they could do :)

then after church we ate at cam and steve's fav place

Spicy Basil.

they both ALWAYS get the same thing.

they are kind of a cute little couple.

weirdos.
